• Longitudinal Immune Dynamics of Mild COVID-19 Define Signatures of Recovery and Persistence

  SARS-CoV-2 has infected over 160 million and caused more than 3 million deaths to date. Most individuals (>80%) have mild symptoms and recover in the outpatient setting, but detailed studies of immune responses have focused primarily on moderate to severe COVID-19. We deeply profiled the longitudinal immune response in individuals with mild COVID beginning with early time points post-infection (1-15 days) and proceeding through convalescence to >100 days after symptom onset. We correlated data from single cell analyses of peripheral blood cells, serum proteomics, virus-specific cellular and humoral immune responses, and clinical metadata. Acute infection was characterized by vigorous coordinated innate and adaptive activation, including an early cellular and proteomic signature that correlated with the amplitude of virus-specific humoral responses after day 30. We characterized signals associated with recovery and convalescence to define a new signature of inflammatory cytokines, gene expression, and chromatin accessibility that persists in individuals with post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC).

• Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing of Human Prostatectomy Tissue

  The tissue microenvironment in prostate cancer is profoundly altered. How prostate cancer cells and their precursors mediate those changes is unclear, in part due to the inability to longitudinally study the disease evolution in human tissues. To overcome this limitation, we performed extensive single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) to assess the transcriptional profiles of the tissue microenvironment in prostate tissues from prostatectomies from men diagnosed with prostate cancer. For each subject, benign-enriched and tumor-enriched tissues were collected from the peripheral zone of the prostate. Our studies of human tissues revealed that cancer cell-intrinsic activation of MYC signaling was the top up-regulated pathway in human cancers, representing a common denominator across the well-known molecular and pathological heterogeneity of human prostate cancer. Numerous non-malignant cell states in the tumor microenvironment (TME), including non-cancerous epithelial, immune, and fibroblast cell compartments, were conserved across individuals, suggesting that these cell types may be a sequelae of the convergent MYC activation in the cancer cells.

• Genomic Alterations in Normal Breast Tissues Preceding Breast Cancer Diagnosis (GANPBC)

  This study was designed to examine the genomic alterations in histologically normal breast tissues of women who subsequently developed breast cancer and compare it to breast tissues from women who did not. Breast core needle biopsy tissues from 160 healthy women at the Susan G. Komen Tissue Bank were requested for this study and sequenced using whole exome sequencing. The samples included tissues from 79 participants who, during the annual follow-up with Susan G. Komen self-reported a subsequent diagnosis of invasive or non-invasive breast cancer after tissue submission; these cases were classified as pre-diagnosis normal tissues. The remaining 81 samples were from women who had no cancer diagnosis at their last follow-up and were classified as healthy control samples. Among the pre-diagnosis samples, the average time from tissue donation to breast cancer diagnosis was 4.7 years (range: 0-11). For the healthy controls, the average time from tissue donation to the last follow up was 6.1 years (range: 0-14).

• Acute Respiratory Distress Network (ARDSNet) Study 02 Late Steroid Rescue Study (LaSRS) (ARDSNet-LaSRS-BioLINCC)

  Data Access NOTE: Please refer to the “Authorized Access” section below for information about how access to the data from this accession differs from many other dbGaP accessions. Biospecimens: Access to Biospecimens is through the NHLBI Biologic Specimen and Data Repository Information Coordinating Center (BioLINCC). Biospecimens from ARDSNet-LaSRS include BAL Slides, Bronchial Lavage, and Plasma. Please note that use of biospecimens in genetic research is subject to a tiered consent.Objectives: Since previous reports suggested that corticosteroids may improve survival, this project was developed as a multicenter, randomized controlled trial of corticosteroids in patients with persistent ARDS.Background: Persistent acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by excessive fibroproliferation, ongoing inflammation, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and a substantial risk of death.Participants: There were 180 participants.Conclusions: The results do not support the routine use of methylprednisolone for persistent ARDS despite the improvement in cardiopulmonary physiology. In addition, starting methylprednisolone therapy more than two weeks after the onset of ARDS may increase the risk of death. (NEJM April 20, 2006; Vol 354, No. 16, pp 1671-84).

• 10x Multiome from Human Fetal Heart

  We hope to uncover the genetic basis of congenital heart disease by examining how genetic variants, especially those in non-coding regions, influence heart development. To achieve this goal, our research team created a single-cell atlas of human fetal heart development. The study population consists of 41 structurally normal fetal hearts spanning 6 to 22 weeks post-conception. We profiled close to 750,000 using single-cell RNA sequencing and ATAC sequencing technologies via the 10x Genomics Multiome platform.The molecular technologies employed allowed for simultaneous analysis of gene expression and chromatin accessibility at the single-cell level. This approach identified numerous distinct cell types and states within the developing heart, offering detailed insights into gene activity and enhancer usage during critical stages of heart development.Principal findings include the characterization of diverse cell populations and the identification of specific gene expression patterns and regulatory elements active during heart formation. This high-resolution atlas provides valuable insights into how genetic variants may disrupt normal heart development, particularly those in non-coding regions that affect gene regulation.

• Single Cell RNA-Sequencing of BCG Naive and Recurrent Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer Reveals a CD6/ALCAM-Mediated Immune-Suppressive Pathway

  Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) represents 70–80% patients with newly diagnosed bladder cancer, and Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) remains a cornerstone treatment for intermediate- and high-risk NMIBC to prevent disease recurrence and progression. However, a significant number of patients experience recurrence after their first course of BCG, posing significant challenges in the management of the disease. We conducted single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) on freshly collected NMIBC samples, distinguishing between those naive to BCG treatment and those that recurred post-BCG treatment. We observed a clear activation of inflammatory pathways across cell types during recurrence, but these were not associated with canonical immune checkpoint or T cell exhaustion phenotypes. Analysis of cell-to-cell communication revealed enhanced interactions between T cells and urothelial cells in BCG-recurrence, predominantly modulated by CD6 and activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM). Furthermore, we found CD6hi T cells to be immunosuppressed and enriched in recurrent samples, suggesting a potential role for CD6 as an immune evasion signal in NMIBC.

• Systemic Inflammation and Lymphocyte Activation Precede Rheumatoid Arthritis

  The Allen Institute for Immunology-University of California, San Diego-University of Colorado Transition to Rheumatoid Arthritis (ALTRA) project is a prospective longitudinal cohort study to understand the pre-clinical development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We performed cross-sectional and longitudinal multi-omics analyses of peripheral immunity in the anti-citrullinated protein autoantibody-positive (ACPA+) at-risk for RA period. We provide FASTQ files from (1) single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of ACPA+ at-risk (n=45), ACPA+ early RA (n=11), and site-matched ACPA- controls (n=38); (2) scRNA-seq of longitudinal samples from ACPA+ at-risk who developed clinically active RA during our study (n=16 participants, n=75 samples) and ACPA- controls (n=29 subjects, n=89 samples); (3) trimodal TEA-seq of a subset of ACPA+ at-risk (n=7) and ACPA- controls (n=5). Using these data, we characterize pathogenesis prior to clinical RA diagnosis and suggest the at-risk state exhibits substantial immune alterations that could potentially be targeted for early intervention to delay or prevent autoimmunity.

• Genomic Copy-Number Variants Drive Apoptotic Resistance and Relapses on Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors

  We investigated the genomic mechanisms underlying acquired resistance (AR) to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) across tumor types, specifically by examining how copy number variant (CNV)-driven subclonal evolution contributes to clinical relapses in melanoma patients. We analyzed longitudinal clinical melanoma samples from patients who experienced relapses on ICI therapy, complemented by isogenic human melanoma cell line models (M486) and murine melanoma tumor systems. Single-cell whole-genome sequencing (scWGS) was employed to resolve subclonal CNV patterns in AR tumors. The scWGS data revealed that AR-dominant subclones systematically deleted pro-apoptotic genes while amplifying anti-apoptotic genes and innate resistance pathway components. Notably, shared and private AR subclonal CNVs preexisted selective pressure, with convergent evolution targeting apoptosis-regulatory pathways and resulting in downregulated apoptotic/mitochondrial priming that enables ICI resistance. scWGS datasets from isogenic human melanoma cell lines, patient-matched tumor samples, and murine melanoma models will be made available through dbGaP, enabling researchers to access high-resolution subclonal CNV profiles that define the genomic landscape of acquired ICI resistance evolution.

• Reading about genomic analysis of pan-neuroblastoma

  There are virtually no research fields that do not benefit from the large-scale genomic analysis that are so popular nowadays. For research into diseases with highly diverse clinical behavior like pediatric neuroblastoma, nevertheless, this type of approach has been a game-changer. Samuel W. Brady and colleagues, from St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, have gathered data from 702 neuroblastomas which were profiled by whole genome sequencing (WGS, n = 205), whole exome sequencing (WES, n = 539), and/or RNA-Seq. Less than half of the samples were generated during this study, while the others were obtained from previous work. Part of the WES data was indeed deposited in EGA in 2012 (EGA study EGAS00001000213). A scratchy summary about the huge work from Samuel W. Brady and colleagues, published in Nature Communications this October 2020 “These findings suggest that the sympathetic nervous system, the tissue from which neuroblastoma arises, is susceptible to different oncogenic insults at different times during development, which could be explored in future investigations using animal models.” Conclude the authors, highlighting the importance of their findings. Pediatric neuroblastomas are classified according to clinical and molecular features into low, intermediate, and high risk. Age plays a critical role in the classification, with younger children having an overall better prognosis. The samples included in this study belonged to all ages and risk-groups: the aim of such set up is the identification of age-associated molecular aberrations. The authors defined a mutational landscape of pediatric neuroblastoma including rare driver events, impossible to pick with a smaller data set. Interestingly, most driver mutations' frequency was found to be age-related. Those include alterations on MYCN, TERT, PTPRD, and Ras pathway, in addition to the previously reported ATRX. In addition, the large data set allowed the authors to define co-existence relations between the mutations (mutual exclusion or co-occurrence) which is a crucial puzzle piece to unravel the mechanisms driving the pathogenesis.

• Human liver cholangiocyte organoids capture the heterogeneity of in vivo human liver ductal epithelium

  Human liver ductal epithelium is morphologically, functionally and transcriptionally heterogeneous. However, understanding the dynamics within human biliary/ductal epithelium has been hampered by the absence of an in vitro system that fully mimics its complex cellular heterogeneity. Here, we found that the human liver cholangiocyte (ductal-cell) organoids we previously published (Huch et al., 2015) are fairly homogenous and do not retain the cellular heterogeneity of the in vivo human biliary/ductal epithelium. Inspired by the knowledge of the in vivo niche, we refined our previous organoid culture medium to fully capture the cellular heterogeneity of the human ductal epithelium. We employed this refined system to analyse the interactions and relationships between the different human biliary epithelial cell states and discovered that acquiring a bipotent ductal cell state is necessary for differentiating the human ductal epithelium into functional hepatocyte-like cells. Our improved cholangiocyte organoid model represents a new platform to investigate cell plasticity and duct-to-hepatocyte differentiation in human liver.
